Dance Baby Dance

Published by jmprice3 under parenting Edit This

I’m trying to raise independent well rounded young ladies. I want my girls to believe in themselves and to follow their own thing.  I want them to dance to their own tune and not always to the tune of other people.  You are not always going to have someone to make music for you and sometimes you will find it in unexpected places.  This was proven to be true in a small way.

My two year old was following me around “helping” clean up the house.  She pulled some clean dish towels out of the kitchen drawer and run in the laundry room to put them in the dirty clothes hamper.  On her way back through, she stopped in front of the washing machine.  She started dancing and singing to the sound of the washer.  Now, that is what I call dancing to the beat of your own drum.  Dance Baby Dance!
